Ingredients

|| Coffee Cake ||

1/2 cup butter

3/4 cup granulated sugar

2 teaspoons vanilla extract

2 eggs

2 cups flour

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1/4 teaspoon baking soda

3/4 cup buttermilk

|| Crumble ||

1/4 cup butter, melted

3/4 cup flour

1/2 cup brown sugar

1/4 teaspoon cinnamon

3-5 slices of bacon, thick and sliced

|| Maple Drizzle ||

1 cup powdered sugar

1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon coffee, strongly brewed

1 tablespoon butter, melted

1 teaspoon maple extract

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees.

|| Coffee Cake || Cream together butter, sugar, vanilla and eggs with an electric mixer. In a separate bowl sift flour, salt, baking powder and baking soda. Put half of the flour mixture into the butter and stir. Pour the buttermilk into the batter and mix together for about one minute then add the rest of the flour mixture. Mix until well incorporated, making sure to scrape down the sides of the bowl with a spatula.

Pour into a well oiled 9 inch cake round.

|| Crumble || Melt the butter and add flour, brown sugar and cinnamon. Mix with your hands until it forms a crumble. Sprinkle on top of the cake and place in the oven. Bake for 45-50 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean in the center.

Cut the slices of bacon and cook in a small pan over medium heat until the slices are cooked evenly and place on a paper towel on top of a plate to soak up the excess oil.

|| Maple Drizzle || Mix all of the drizzle ingredients together and set aside.

Once the cake has cooled place a plate over the cake pan and flip the cake removing the cake pan. Then take another plate and flip the cake back to its upright position with the crumble on top. Place the bacon pieces on top of the cake and generously drizzle the maple icing on top.
